Defence Bank today announced a partnership with Next Payments that will deliver fee free ATM access for Defence Bank members making cash withdrawals or checking their balances while they are busy and on the go.
Under the partnership, Defence Bank members can access any of the 3,631 Next Payments ATMs across Australia, which are predominantly in retail and hospitality precincts and locations.
Defence Bank is committed to greater access, reduction of fees, and convenience and choice for its members, regardless of how they choose to bank with us.
Defence Bank Chief Executive Roberto Scenna said the agreement with Next Payments was an exciting development for Defence Bank members.
Scenna said the partnership with Next Payments honours an ongoing commitment to provide even more access to help deliver a more compelling choice and better member experience in banking.
“We are expanding our fee free access to more and more places to give our members more choice and convenience on the go and some welcome extra funds back in their pocket.
“We are excited to partner with Next Payments. By working with them, we also go where our members are, including in retail and hospitality settings.
“Allowing access to their money or to check their balances remains a key part of everyday banking for many of our members, and we will continue to look at partnerships and processes to allow them to bank on us in this regard.
“My commitment to members is to offer banking that is compelling and relevant to their needs.
“At a time of cost of living pressure, every little extra saving helps. We know our members incur up to $644 a year in atm fees so by using Next Payments facilities, they could make some significant savings.”
“Anything we can do to allow our members to be fee free is part of our strategic mission. As well as a growing ATM network, Members can access our award winning digital app, make convenient and fast payments through Osko and PayID and have access to the full suite of digital pays.
“We want more of our members to have their banking all in one place with us, so today’s announcement with Next Payments is a key part of our efforts to continue to make banking easier with Defence Bank.”
